#Cg05 Quartz Crystal Cluster - Greystones Quarry, Lezant, Cornwall small miniature: 2.7 x 4.5 x 1.5 cms $22.00

Pretty little specimen of a Quartz crystal cluster, collected from the Quarry during the 1990's. Greystone Quarry is situated on the strike of a lode system worked by several small 19th C lead mines(Greystone silver lead mine, Wh Sophia, North Tamar). The quarry cuts the eastern end of the vein system worked by the latter mine. The minerals at this location are described in: Famous British Mineral Localities: Greystone Quarry, Lezant, Cornwall.
